Beating Su Man Violently and Exposing Her True Colors

Yun Zhi wore the yellow delivery uniform of a certain food-delivery platform and rode a small electric scooter, stopping by the roadside dozens of meters away from the entrance of the villa area. After pretending to answer a call, she kept her head down looking at her phone, as if she were messaging someone.

In fact, her spiritual power had already extended into the Su family villa, hearing every single word Su Mian said.

Yes, she was the one who did this!

What? Everything belonging to Old Madam Dou is yours? In your wildest dreams!

The grandmother had now recognized her as her only granddaughter. The old lady had told her that in the future, 10% of her estate would be given to her parents, and 90% would be left to her!

Yun Zhi had even deliberately asked about her grandmother's net worth: real estate, various businesses under her name, and private collections added up to just over twenty billion.

Rounded up, Su Mian was trying to harm her grandmother and steal her twenty billion!

If Su Mian had merely been the enemy of Bai Miao, a member of the chat group, Yun Zhi would have done her best on this commissioning task, but she would have been cautious everywhere, taking personal safety and minimizing point expenditure as her primary rules.

However, because of Dou Wanqin, Su Mian had directly become Yun Zhi's enemy!

Regardless of how many people were behind Su Mian, Su Mian was the knife directly pointed at Dou Wanqin, and she was definitely not innocent!

Su Mian had enjoyed Old Madam Dou's pampering for over a decade, yet behind her back, she called her "that old hag," when she herself was clearly the one who deserved to die most!

If she hadn't used filthy means to scheme and have Bai Miao block a fatal tribulation for her, Su Mian would have already "dropped dead and turned into a box"!

Yun Zhi's hatred level toward Su Mian shot up wildly!

Right now, she desperately wanted to sneak into the Su residence and beat Su Mian up.

...Wait? This actually seemed like a brilliant idea!

Not only would it not affect her mission to unearth the people behind Su Mian, but it might even accelerate the progress of those hiding in the shadows poking their heads out!

Yun Zhi had disguised herself so thoroughly that wherever she appeared, Xiao Jiu cleared away all surveillance footage.

If the mastermind behind the scenes was too useless and couldn't dig up any information about her at all, delaying their emergence, there was no telling how much time would be wasted.

Once this thought arose, it could no longer be suppressed.

Yun Zhi pretended to receive another call and spoke loudly, "Confirmed that delivery is no longer needed, and I can dispose of the items as I see fit, right? Alright, let's leave it at that for now. Remember to give me a five-star review, dear!"

The villa area security guard, who had walked several meters toward Yun Zhi, paused his steps.

Yun Zhi started her electric scooter and zipped away in a flash.

After leaving the surveillance range of the Su family villa, Yun Zhi found a deserted alley without cameras and stopped.

She put the electric scooter back into her spatial storage, took off the delivery jacket, and applied an enhanced invisibility talisman with a full one-hour duration.

Using lightness kung fu, she swiftly returned to the villa area where the Su family resided and successfully sneaked into the Su family villa.

She had the Su family to thank. Because they placed excessive trust in the high-voltage electric fences around the perimeter of the villa area and the security guards patrolling day and night, coupled with their desire for an unobstructed view of the garden scenery, the second-floor balcony had no anti-theft grilles installed at all.

Using her ice-type superpower to create a few footholds on the wall, Yun Zhi easily climbed up to the second floor and onto the large balcony outside Su Mian's room.

Yun Zhi turned on the voice recorder and pinhole camera she was carrying.

The audio recording was for reporting back to the Supernormal Bureau regarding why she used her powers against an "ordinary person," while the video footage was for submitting the completed mission to Bai Miao.

The 15,500 energy stones could not be taken for free; she had to prove that she had genuinely accomplished real work.

At that moment, Su Mian was still on the phone.

"Wuwu, Big Brother, Dou Grandma was doing fine, how could she have disappeared from the hospital room for no reason? It's so terrifying! I'm so worried... How about we bring Mom home?"

"What? Big Brother, you've already gone to handle Mom's discharge procedures? That's great, then I'll go to the hospital to welcome Mom home too..."

"Alright, I'll listen to Big Brother and not run around. I'll wait obediently at home for you and Mom to come back. I'll make Big Brother's favorite matcha cake!"

"Dad is coming back tonight too? I'm so happy, our loving family will finally be reunited!"

After hanging up the phone, the obedient and sensible persona Su Mian had faked instantly turned cold and sinister.

"Hmph, Su Zimo doesn't even like cake. Every time he eats all the cakes I make, he just wants to coax me into a good mood."

"Since the luck provided by Dou Old Hag is gone, I can only add a little something for my good big brother as well, letting him suffer a minor injury too."

"And my good dad shouldn't be left out either. He loves me so much, he certainly won't mind if I borrow a bit of his luck."

Su Mian sat before her vanity table, touched her face, and spoke with a voice full of anger and panic, "Hisss, why are there a few more wrinkles at the corners of my eyes? No, I need to put on a heavier layer of makeup before Mom and Big Brother get back."

Su Mian opened her expensive cosmetics and began her skincare routine while cursing bitterly, "Damn it all, I hope Master finds that person who stole Dou Old Hag away soon!"

Yun Zhi: Well well, so the mastermind and Su Mian had a master-disciple relationship.

Invisible, Yun Zhi silently entered the room through the open balcony door and saw Su Mian's current appearance through the mirror.

The skin on her face was in poor condition, covered in fine freckles, with numerous fine lines at the corners of her eyes. Her hair, which had been thick, black, glossy, and radiant just yesterday, had also become sparse, withered, and yellow.

In short, Su Mian's current state didn't look at all like a young girl who had just celebrated her twentieth birthday; she looked more like someone in her thirties or forties.

Her originally pretty facial features had also become much more ordinary, completely incomparable to the exquisitely beautiful Bai Miao.

This was... Su Mian's true appearance after losing Dou Wanqin's luck blessing?

Since they were a loving family, why bother putting on makeup when seeing one's own family!

Presumably, Tong Qiu, who had just been discharged from the hospital and looked haggard, along with the father and son Su Yuan and Su Zimo who had suffered numerous setbacks outside in the malls, definitely wouldn't be in the mood to put on makeup when returning home.

As a family, they should be neat and tidy! Sincere and exposed to one another!

Thinking this, Yun Zhi first took out a soundproofing array disk from her storage pouch, inputted her spiritual power to confirm its activation, and then placed it inside her small cross-body bag.

This soundproofing array disk was quite miniature, about the size of a palm, and could only ensure that the sound within this room did not leak out—provided that Yun Zhi didn't tear the entire room apart, making it just right for the current situation.

Next, Yun Zhi flicked an ice ball, causing the high-end toner bottle in Su Mian's hand to crash onto the floor and shatter into pieces.

A piece of the splashing glass even grazed the calf of Su Mian, who was wearing only a nightgown, leaving a distinct bloody scratch on it.

With a sharp scream of "Ah," Su Mian immediately turned around and scanned the room: "Who is it?"

Glancing around, she found no one else in the room at all.

She instinctively raised her hand to grab the white jade koi pendant hanging around her neck, and only felt slightly reassured after confirming the jade pendant was still intact.

Could it be that the falling of the toner bottle was just an accident?

Impossible, she clearly felt that the bottle had been struck by something.

Searching all around, she couldn't find what had hit the bottle at all.

Su Mian stood up in a panic, wanting to call the guards, but paused when she thought of her completely bare, unmade-up face.

Dou Wanqin's aura had completely vanished. The sub-gu of the mother-child luck-夺 gu she had planted inside the other woman's body was clearly not dead, yet there was no response at all.

Waking up, Su Mian had discovered she had aged several years overnight.

Afterward, she aged rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

This meant someone capable was helping Dou Wanqin on the other end, having already unraveled the previously doomed death trap, and even the luck and lifespan she had seized were quickly returning to their original owner.

Because her appearance kept aging, Su Mian, who used to deliver nourishing soup to Tong Qiu at the hospital every day, had to make up an excuse not to go today.

Yet she hadn't expected them to be returning right away!

She absolutely, positively could not let her parents, brothers, and younger brother see her current appearance!

Their affection for her was built on the foundation of her being their daughter, their younger sister, and their older sister.

Wearing a face the same age as Tong Qiu's, how could she continue acting as Su Yuan and Tong Qiu's precious daughter, or the cute little sister/older sister of the three Su brothers?

Panicked and furious, Su Mian shouted into the empty air, "Who is it? Who is playing God? Come out!"

Su Mian herself had relied on various mystical methods to seize an identity, wealth, and beauty that didn't belong to her, so she naturally knew that metaphysics masters possessed many methods science couldn't explain.

However, Su Mian considered herself to have only taken the smaller share, while her several masters and senior brothers had gained the most benefits.

The person capable of turning invisible or attacking her from afar must be very strong, someone she couldn't handle, probably no worse than her senior brother.

Yet they certainly couldn't compare to her several masters!

"Go find my master instead, don't look for me, okay? I was forced against my will, I'm a victim too..."

Realizing she most likely couldn't defeat the hidden entity, Su Mian began acting pitiful.

If Yun Zhi were a man swayed by beauty, if Su Mian were still her previous pretty and gorgeous self, or if Yun Zhi hadn't overheard Su Mian's malicious words in private beforehand... she might actually have been fooled by Su Mian's acting.

What a pity—there were no " ifs."

Seeing Su Mian like this, Yun Zhi only found her eyes stinging!

Rolling her eyes, Yun Zhi didn't waste words, rushed forward, and hit Su Mian with an acupoint-sealing strike, fixing her in place—this made beating her much more convenient!

Following that, she delivered a hard slap to Su Mian's face!

Su Mian's face, already turned ordinary and aged, instantly swelled up.

Yun Zhi's physique, having been enhanced multiple times, possessed strength no less than an ordinary strength-type superpower user. If Yun Zhi hadn't only used two or three tenths of her strength, Su Mian could have been beaten until she coughed up blood directly.

Unable to move, Su Mian wailed in pain and angrily shouted, "Bastard, how dare you hit me! I curse you to be plagued by misfortune, lose all your wealth, and die a horrible death!"

The moment Su Mian said this, the white jade koi pendant hanging around her neck actually emitted a black beam of light that lunged toward Yun Zhi.

However, the moment this black light came within 10cm of Yun Zhi's body surface, it seemed to encounter something terrifying and instantly bounced back along its original path...

To be precise, it lunged into Su Mian's body instead of returning to the white jade koi pendant.

Su Mian's appearance visibly aged a few more years, making her look around 45 years old.

Although Su Mian couldn't see the changes in her appearance, she could feel her body growing even more frail and weak, prompting her in terror to ask, "Who, who on earth are you? Why didn't the misfortune curse work?"

Ignoring Su Mian's cries, Yun Zhi realized that three tenths of her strength wouldn't cripple someone, so she added two tenths more and delivered several more slaps to Su Mian's face!

As the saying goes, hitting people shouldn't target the face—that applies to ordinary opponents. When dealing with blood enemies, hitting someone meant targeting the face specifically!

Su Mian cared about this face of hers above all else.

What this woman had done to Bai Miao and Dou Wanqin was enough to cost her her life; giving her a few heavy slaps could just be counted as collecting interest!

To ferret out the rats and bugs hiding in the gutters behind Su Mian, Su Mian couldn't die just yet.

As a member of the Supernormal Bureau, Yun Zhi couldn't kill someone simply out of personal grievances. Once matters were investigated thoroughly, she would hand Su Mian over to the Supernormal Bureau for processing.

Before that, however, it wouldn't hinder her from collecting a bit more interest from Su Mian!

With this in mind, Yun Zhi changed her open palm into a fist and continued greeting Su Mian's face, turning one of Su Mian's eyes into a panda eye.

She also knocked out four of Su Mian's front teeth and two of her molars!

Most of Su Mian's face remained intact, lest she try to shirk responsibility later by claiming all her ugliness stemmed solely from being beaten.

Yun Zhi refused to take that blame!

Once the right half of Su Mian's face was swollen like a pig's head, Yun Zhi was finally satisfied and switched to attacking other parts of Su Mian's body that hurt badly without causing excessive injury.

For instance, the meatiest part—her buttocks...

She still had to leave Su Mian with some mobility to seek out her "master."

The chat group system prompted her that Su Mian's soul had a special restriction placed on it; even if she used the jade dragon spirit to compel her to tell the truth, she couldn't extract information about the true identity of the mastermind.

Thus, she could only let Su Mian lead her directly to those people.

Amidst her cries of pain, Su Mian cursed Yun Zhi wildly, "Ahhh, you hooligan! Pervert! Bi-stard, I'll ki-ll you!"

Because she was missing four front teeth, Su Mian's speech was somewhat whistling and slurred.

Yun Zhi wore dark lines on her forehead.

When she spanked Su Mian's bottom, she truly harbored no lustful intentions—it was purely because she thought there was more meat there, making it durable and hard to break. Hadn't birth parents always punished unruly kids by hitting them there?

Accused in this manner by Su Mian, Yun Zhi actually hesitated a bit to continue, lest it really make her look like a female hooligan!

Yet letting Su Mian off just like that felt deeply unsatisfactory. After thinking for a moment, she directly snapped Su Mian's left arm.

Well, she had merely crippled one of her arms; it shouldn't hinder her from making phone calls, and her legs were still fine, which wouldn't prevent her from going out either!

Su Mian let out a shriek like a slaughtered pig, "Big Bro—no, you'd better hit my bottom instead!"

Yun Zhi sneered out loud, "Who's your big brother? Don't call me that blindly; I don't have a vicious-hearted sister like you!"

Her voice was altered by a voice changer, sounding somewhat distorted, but it was unmistakably female.

Su Mian froze for a moment. She had assumed that whoever had invisible-sneaked into her room and acted so violently must be a man; she hadn't expected it to be a woman!

In a flash of insight, Su Mian figured it out: "It's you! You're the one who took Dou Old Hag away, right?"

Logically speaking, even if this person could turn invisible, it shouldn't have been so easy to take Dou Wanqin away. Senior Brother had placed numerous restrictions on Dou Wanqin's body; as long as she wanted to leave X City, her body would experience severe discomfort, and actually leaving would cause severe backlash to her body, bringing her close to death.

If those restrictions had all been undone, Senior Brother couldn't possibly have been completely unaware.

Unless Dou Wanqin had been instantaneously transferred to a place far away from X City where the restrictions lost effect—for example, spatial teleportation.

Or perhaps this person possessed some method to temporarily suppress the restrictions on Dou Wanqin, rendering them ineffective.

Although this world possessed plenty of mystical methods, spatial teleportation exceeded the limits by too much, making it unlikely. Su Mian guessed it must be the latter.

Yun Zhi frankly admitted, "That's right, it was me. If you don't want to die, find a way to see your master within the next two days, otherwise... Heh, don't blame me for being impolite. Next time, I'll carve hundreds of bloody gasps into your face and body, smear them with salt, chili water, and honey, and then bring a nest of ants..."

Su Mian said in terror, "Don't, don't, don't, I'll go, I—I promise I'll find my master!"

Having turned into this ghostly appearance, she was supposed to go beg her master and senior brothers for help anyway; without them intervening to help, she wouldn't be able to stay in the Su family either.

Su Mian thought that since her master and senior brothers were so powerful, they would surely be able to deal with this unidentified woman!

At that time, she would definitely return everything this woman had done to her tenfold, and seize her luck, wealth, and life!

Seeing her objective achieved, Yun Zhi didn't bother speaking more nonsense. After unlocking Su Mian's room door from the inside, she left via the balcony.

Using her ice-type powers to create a few footholds, she climbed up to the top floor of the Su family villa—the small attic on the fourth floor used for storage—and crawled in through the window.

Su Mian lay flat on the floor, face down and back up.

She figured the violent female pervert must have left.

Or perhaps she hadn't, and was still hiding in some corner she couldn't see.

Still, Su Mian softly asked a few times, but the other party never responded to her words again.

Wanting to cry out for help loudly, she was afraid the Su family members would see her current disheveled and ugly appearance.

Su Mian cursed softly, "Bastard, you didn't even release my acupoint restriction. How am I supposed to face people like this? Wuwuwu..."

Up in the attic, Yun Zhi was washing her hands leisurely in the bathroom and gave a disdainful "chi" of disgust.

Did this woman still care about face?

Every single thing she had done was a shameless act.

Yun Zhi had purposely left the acupoint-sealing restriction on Su Mian so that it would only automatically lift after about forty minutes.

This way, Su Mian wouldn't be able to conceal her face—such as by putting on a mask or a hat—before the Su family members discovered her.

Finished washing her hands, Yun Zhi took out some small snacks from her personal storage space and began to eat.

Half an hour later, the sound of a car engine rang out outside the Su family villa.

It was Su Zimo bringing Tong Qiu back from the hospital.

Tong Qiu had been hospitalized for eight days, during which Su Zimo had been busy with work matters and hadn't visited his mother even once.

Yet her younger sister Su Mian went every single day.

This left Tong Qiu with plenty of resentment toward Su Zimo. Su Zimo, remembering that his mother still held quite a bit of dowry and owned a 5% share of the family business, grew concerned.

Though he also doted on Su Mian, he prioritized his own interests more and certainly didn't want Tong Qiu giving all her good things to Su Mian.

Therefore, upon learning that an accident had occurred at the hospital where Tong Qiu stayed, and that Old Madam Dou from the same villa area had disappeared for no reason while many patients at the hospital had transferred or been discharged, he promptly canceled all his schedule for the day and personally went to fetch Tong Qiu out of the hospital.

Having been away for just a few days, despite merely suffering from a common cold, Tong Qiu looked as though she had contracted some severe illness; she appeared much paler, thinner, and weaker overall.

Seeing his mother in this state, Su Zimo was also taken aback.

Who knew what was going on with the Su family lately? Their mother was sick, both younger brothers had been injured, and neither he nor his father was having a smooth time at work.

Could it be that wild girl Su Bai Miao wasn't resting in peace even in death, and her vengeful ghost was still haunting them and refusing to leave?

Su Zimo entertained this possibility, but didn't dare voice it aloud, merely thinking to himself that later he should find a master to come home and "exorcise evil spirits."

Master Liu, the one who had read Su Mian's fortune, was quite good. He said Su Mian was born with a koi fish destiny capable of bringing good luck to the Su family, and his calculations were extremely accurate.

Only when Su Mian was in the Su family did the family's business thrive steadily, and everything the Su family members did went smoothly.

Ever since that wild girl was brought back two years ago, the Su family had started experiencing various misfortunes... though those had all been minor things.

It wasn't until a little over a month ago, when Su Bai Miao was thrown into the sea on a cruise ship... that the Su family became exceptionally unlucky.

Really, a jinx like that shouldn't have been recognized and brought back at all!

If Su Mian hadn't accidentally discovered she wasn't a biological daughter back then and specially invited Master Liu to help calculate it, learning that the Su family's biological daughter was still alive and her greatest wish was for them to find their biological daughter/younger sister/older sister, they wouldn't have even remembered that the Su family had a biological daughter at all.

Su Zimo pulled back his thoughts.

He supported the sickly Tong Qiu into the house.

The second young master of the Su family, Su Zifeng, had been in a car accident and sat in a wheelchair with a plaster cast on his left leg.

The youngest son of the Su family, Su Zigang, had his right arm in a splint and bandage, hanging from his neck.

Upon seeing Tong Qiu's appearance, the two brothers also wore looks of shock.

"Mom, didn't you just catch a bad cold? How did you end up looking like this?"

"Yeah, Mom, you look like you've aged five years!"

Tong Qiu was puzzled herself; she had only had a cold, so how had it turned this severe?

The longer she lay in the hospital, the more she felt as though death might not be too far away from her either.

Unwilling to mention her aging and ugliness in front of her sons, Tong Qiu felt her muddled mind clearing up a lot ever since she left the hospital, figuring she would get better soon.

Scanning the living room, she didn't see the figure of her most beloved youngest daughter, Su Mian, and asked with a frown, "Where is Mianmian?"

"Oh, Big Sis is in her room. Who knows why she hasn't come down yet after all this time; I'll go up and call her," Su Zigang volunteered eagerly.

With that, he dashed toward the stairs like a gust of wind.

Tong Qiu watched anxiously, "Xiaogang, slow down! Don't fall."

Not long after, from Su Mian's room on the second floor, Su Zigang's earth-shattering howl rang out: "Holy crap, where did this old, ugly woman come from? Why are you in my sister's room?"

Su Mian, who was only twenty years old and had always been pretty and gorgeous: ...
